CKB-Next and key assignments.

[shadowtabby]

Heyo guys,

So I have done amazing things with CKB! I love this software, but what I want to know how is this.

I was to assign discord to G3, calculator to G1, Brave to G2 etc, but idk where to find anything and what do to. Help please?

Heyo,

No because its not using the CKB-Next and it is not telling me how to fet the things I need to make it work for G1 - 6 with assigning it to software.

If you are like me, wondering what this thread is all about, then here is the answer:

I am still noe-the-wiser.

Two choices, build from source:

sudo apt install build-essential cmake libudev-dev qtbase5-dev zlib1g-dev libpulse-dev libquazip5-dev libqt5x11extras5-dev libxcb-screensaver0-dev libxcb-ewmh-dev libxcb1-dev qttools5-dev git libdbusmenu-qt5-dev

Then:

git clone https://github.com/ckb-next/ckb-next.git
cd ckb-next
./quickinstall

Or add the PPA Good up to 24.04

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:tatokis/ckb-next
sudo apt install ckb-next

Not what you asked about, but it works for those who have that board.
And it runs as deamon I would have to guess:

sudo systemctl start ckb-next-daemon

Heyo,

I'm with you, I am thinking where is the info on how to do this, I see the keyboards etc that it will work with etc. I look at this and think, I already have this installed. Point is I want to get the apps on the G1 - G6 buttons, and I am not sure how to get the apps locations to put it in the mapping in the software which is what the question was. Then I look in places being dyslexic and think, where is the information for this that I am asking about clearly and gave examples in my first post?

I don't have the device, I'm just trying to help you: https://github.com/ckb-next/ckb-next...-Daemon-Manual

Heyo,

Ik ik. I wasn't being nasty or anything... Let me read this other link you sent.

[shadowtabby]

heyo,

I need the path for apps. So I can assign them to the key. HOW do I get THE PATHS for the software??

So in other words. To asign a software launch to G1 like the calc or discord I NEED THE PATH TO THE SOFTWARE to assign to the key. HOW do I get the PATH?

grahammechanical:
this thread is a continuation of "icue app?"

1fallen2:
It's in the Ubuntu repositories.

shadowtabby:
I've never used ckb-next and have no Corsair peripherals.
If you do not see a way to assign a key to open a program (open the Bindings tab) ckb-next may not support that.
So try the method linked to in post #2.
